I think I'm a weird combination of deeply introverted and very daring. I can feel both those things working.

I think I have more of a director's brain than an actor's brain, in a way.

Words are less needful to sorrow than to joy.

We can live a life full and complete, thinking with our heads but living from our hearts.

The lands are lit with all the autumn blaze of golden-rod, and everywhere the purple asters nod and bend and wave and flit.

I worked before I had my daughter, enough for three actresses.

I don't wish I started later, but I was never a child star. I was in school every year and had normal friends and I loved it and here I am, so I can't say that I wish I hadn't done it. I used to say, 'No, I didn't miss any of my childhood,' but it is a very adult place to be, a movie set. Like, it's a little weird.
